Thanks Trudy and Steve

Monday, May 22

After a lovely breakfast, Trudy shared her experiences of being in Hanoi and Vietnam with us, giving us some great travel advice.  We went for a walk through some spectacular scenery, all it their backyard.  We then started our drive to Woolgoolga.  Arriving in the early afternoon, the caravan park was right on the ocean, so the boys were off to try out the new boogie boards leaving me to set up camp.  The one tent that had a broken pole in South Africa seems to mysteriously have fixed itself.  A self healing tent, what a great item.  If I can figure out how, I am going to patent it.

I had been looking for replacement poles in Melbourne, but unsuccessfully.  The tent must have felt bad for me.  The boys were in the water for over two hours and loved the waves, as one wave would crash onto the other and give the boys more speed.  They would wash right up onto the beach, and started to do board spins as they came in.  Camping was good.  Levi has elected to sleep in the back seat of the car for the rest of our camping days.  Luke and Nate seem happy with that, and Cindy and I have decided why not.  Everyone is happy.
